Jack
Murphy Won’t Back Down
The
headlines scream the ghastly news of an abandoned truck filled with
murdered immigrants. Detective Jack Murphy and his partner Liddell
Blanchard are on the case. They’ve got a lone survivor, rumors of a
witness, and the feds getting in their way. Jack’s gut tells him
there’s a connection with a local killing—and the bloodshed is
far from over. He’s going up against a butcher who commits the
unspeakable in the name of protecting America. Some say the worst
crime is to look the other way. Jack Murphy only looks for justice .
. .

DeleteThe book cover looks like it would be a great book to read. My question for the author is where do you get your ideas for your stories.
ReplyDeleteDarlene, sorry for the late reply. I'm glad you like the cover. Kensington Books has a great designer. Your question: The ideas for the stories come very easily. I was a cop for over 30 years, a detective for most of it, and the characters speak to me. This book, THE DEADLIEST SINS, actually became an idea about 3 years ago. I was trying to come up with a title for a book I was writing (I never get to name my own books, so I don't know why I bother thinking up titles), and a thought popped in my head. "They call me Joe." That was the entire idea. From there I wrote the story three years or so later. Sounds crazy I know. Thanks for the question.

DeleteThrillers are my favourite. I like the cover. I would pick this up in a store or library. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThe cover art is a little generic, but it gets the point across.
